OpenAI Lays Groundwork for On-Prem Product

General News

Summary

OpenAI has added contract language for software delivered to customer-managed systems, including local machines and private cloud environments. The new terms define licensed materials as code, containers, and modules that customers install themselves. The clause also requires permanent deletion of all copies when the license ends. This signals that OpenAI is preparing for an on-premises product direction before a formal launch announcement. Buyers evaluating secure local deployment should treat the deletion requirement as an important planning item.
